Partial Systematic Polar Coding

Due to having a better performance of bit error rate (BER), systematic polar codes have been potentially applied in digital data transmission. In the systematic polar coding, source bits are transmitted transparently. In this paper, we propose a scheme of novel partial systematic polar coding in which the encoded codeword is only composed of partial source bits with respect to the encoded word of systematic polar codes. To effectively reduce the resource consumption of the systematic encoder/decoder under all-zero frozen bits, the partial systematic polar codes are introduced subsequently. Then the simulation results in terms of core \( F = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}l} 1 \hfill & 0 \hfill \\ 1 \hfill & 1 \hfill \\ \end{array} } \right] \) are provided to demonstrate the aforementioned analysis with negligible difference of BER performance.
